Explaining why she wanted to keep things naturalistic and authentic, Maine adds: “[Female sexuality] is not something that’s readily discussed. And so, it therefore is led to be something for women to discover on their own, often when they’re quite young. And there’s always a sense of shame around that.

“I’m just hoping that if the film does reach a younger audience, that they see it and they feel a little less weird or bad about themselves for having very normal feelings.”

What are critics saying about Yes, God, Yes?
